Our school has top performers descending from all over the globe. However, almost all of them are Americans. Even though many of them have Asian decent. Asians certainly know something about effectively learning hard book material than other races. The question is, what do they know?

I observed this several decades ago, and it remains to be true. USA Today published a list of the top 100 high school students in the USA, two from each state. About 3/4 of them had names that suggested that they or their parents were first-generation Americans, mostly from Asia, many from Latin America and some from Africa. (This is more often reflected by their first names. A child named Mohammed or Han-ji or Fernando is unlikely to be from an assimilated American household.)

Asians simply work harder than Americans .I don't know if it's in their culture or what but I say congrats to them they deserve it .
